Jet2.com and Jet2holidays have announced five new destinations to its flight path. Travellers will be able to book holiday hotspots including Greece and Italy now. 

The UK’s largest tour operator will see stunning Greek destinations including Poros, Aegina and Leros added to its summer 25 programme. 

Elsewhere, Palermo in Italy will be added to Jet2’s summer 26 programme, which is the tenth Italian airport for the tour operator. 

Finally, Tallinn in Estonia is a new Christmas market destination for travellers to visit in winter 25/26.

According to Jet2’s website: “Customers can reach Poros and Aegina via flights to Athens Airport from Manchester, Birmingham and London Stansted, with ferry and private transfers included in a Jet2holidays booking. 

“With lush greenery, inviting beaches, charming towns and bundles of history, these idyllic islands have all the ingredients for a memorable Greek getaway.” 

Meanwhile, Leros is accessible via Kos Airport where travellers can fly to from nine UK airports from summer next year. 

These include Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, East Midlands, Leeds Bradford, Liverpool John Lennon, Manchester, Newcastle International and London Stansted. 

Customers booking with Jet2holidays to Leros have ferry and shuttle transfers included. Part of the Dodecanese islands, Leros is known for its crystal-clear waters, sandy beaches and peaceful atmosphere, making it the ultimate pick for a relaxing, go-slow summer holiday. 

For those who are looking to visit Tallinn, city breaks are available from Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh. 

Jet2CityBreaks will operate two weekly trips from each airport from late November until the week before Christmas, perfectly timed for the festive season. Each of the routes is exclusive to Jet2. 

Tallinn is Estonia’s capital and is a magical festive experience. Dotted throughout the city’s medieval Old Town, they feature charming wooden stalls brimming with handcrafted gifts, festive decorations and delicious local treats like zingy gingerbread and mulled wine. 

The next new destination being announced today is Palermo, with flights and holidays available throughout summer 26 from Manchester with two weekly services running on Tuesday and Friday.

Birmingham will have a weekly Wednesday service and Newcastle International Airports will have a weekly Tuesday service. Again, each of the routes is exclusive to Jet2.  

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: “The launch of five brand-new destinations is fantastic news for our customers and it comes in direct response to the demand for our award-winning holidays no matter what time of the year. 

“As a result of today’s announcement, we are expanding our summer sun programme as well as our fantastic selection of Christmas market trips. 

“Greece and Italy continue to be summer sunshine favourites, so we are adding even more choices thanks to the introduction of Poros, Aegina, Leros and Palermo, and the addition of magical Tallinn expands our Christmas Markets even further for next winter.”
